Silver River (not listed)? One of our top 3 rivers to kayak in Florida. The only place to see wild monkeys! We put in at the State Park, Half mile portage to a nice ramp, and the only porta-potty on the river. 2 mile trip up river and 2 mile back down. You can now put in at the old Silver Spring Park and there are some areas now open to kayaking at the springs. There is also a put in at Ray's Wayside Park, 5 mile round trip from here, fee to park/put in.
